About the speaker:

Dr Heidi R Green is a Health Equity and Patient Involvement Specialist and a Creative Qualitative Researcher who co-developed the NIHR INCLUDE Socio-economic disadvantage framework which has been designed to aid researchers who are designing clinical trials to consider barriers to including patients from socioeconomically disadvantaged backgrounds in their trial. The framework can also help researchers to develop strategies to attempt to address such barriers in order to improve the design and conduct of clinical research.

With over a decade of experience leading the design and delivery of innovative and award-winning projects, Heidi is an experienced health equity specialist, creative qualitative researcher, and lived experience advocate. Her mission is to embed accessibility and inclusivity into all of the projects she’s involved in, driving change for those that stand to benefit most.
